In From Healing to Hell Wall tell show his father, former Georgia state senator and physician W. Henry Wall, was arrested on federal drug charges and involuntarily subjected to the CIA’s infamous MKULTRA drug experiments. Wall’s father’s trauma and flashbacks affected the entire family, and Wall recounts both his family’s struggle and his own work to clear his father’s name. Much of Wall’s story takes place in his hometown of Blakely.

“We were happy to have Dr. Wall signing his book with us during Peanut Proud,” said Debra Anderson, owner of 3 Diamonds. “His book tells about an important event in his life and in Blakely history, and people seem to be really responding to his book.”
